President Kerry D. Romesburg must now appear before the Board of Regents in January or February to obtain their approval of the request.According to Mike V. Jacob-sen, director of athletics at UVCC, "Very few things have the potential to rally the support of a school or a community the way a successful football program can." The program is expected to cost approximately $150, 000 yearly with $ 100,000 coming from student fees, $34,000 from the school in the form of partial coaches salaries, and $15,000 from the community. The community is expected to play a big role in the start-up of the program also. The cost of 150 uniforms, at $37,500, is expected to be covered from this source as well as another $6,500 in miscellaneous equipment Reserve accounts from student fees collected will be used to purchase two double-wide used mobile homes which will be equiped with lockers, showers, toilets and offices.An additional $35,000 will come from the reserved student fee fund to cover the cost salaries and benefits for two coaches for the six month period before the team actual begins to play. It is felt that this time is necessary for recruiting and organizational purposes. When the program does get underway, UVCC will become the tenth member in the Western State Football League. Currently, the league consistes of five college teams from Arizona and four from Utah. The college already offers male students basketball, baseball and rodeo while women students may participate in cheerleading baseball, Softball, volleyball, and rodeo. A student survey conducted six years ago showed 69 percent of the students favored a football program. A survey last year indicated that the same percentage of the student body still favored having a football program at UVCC. Approval of the Board of Regents will move that program closer to reality.

Also scheduled to perform during the event are hostess for the evening JacqueTingey, Miss Utah, 1989; Miss UVCC, 1980; Miss UVCC, 1986; and Joey Thompson, a well-know local performer. Past UVCC queens will also be honored as well. Tickets for the pageant are $3.00. Kearney retires after 27 years with college By Terry Young Editor in chief Trading 27 years of service at UVCC for a job in Saudi Arabia has not been an easy decision for Dr. Wayne Kearney, Vice President of Student Affairs. Joking that he will now have access to golf courses that are " 18-hole-sandtraps," Kearney is excited about the new position with the International Airport Project in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. As Administrator for Supervisory Training, he will be selecting students to come to the United States for technical and professional training. He hopes to be sending many of them to UVCC. When Kearney speaks with pride and admiration of the strides UVCC has made since he first joined the staff in 1964, he sounds like a proud father bragging about a much-loved child. Born and reared in Idaho Falls, Idaho, Kearney attended Ricks before attending BYU where he earned his degrees in psychology. When he joined the staff in 1964 as a counselor, he worked with one of four national pilot programs for the Job Corp, first at Camp Williams and then at the Clearfield project Dr. Kearney started as a full-time counselor on the Provo campus in March, 1965. At the time, there were only 500 students. "Then, I knew most of the students by name. We've grown so much now that I don't even know all of the teachers." He was also involved with the athletic department at the school which was then known as Utah Trade Technical Institute. Ershal Shephard was coach, and the basketball team participated in an industrial league, playing teams from businesses or other departments. The first sports banquet was in a cafe in Santiquin when eight players filled two booths. The event today involves 800-900 people. Dr. Kearney has seen many changes in his 27 years with the school. "By and large, the changes have been positive," he said. "But, we need to not lose sight of our vocational technical terminal roll." He also added that we must change to answer the needs of the students. Kearney is enthusiastic about the time he has spent at UVCC. "I grew up here. I identify with this school and want it to do nothing but succeed." Some of the best experiences he's had are in the various classes he's taught. "I really like to teach," he said. Kearney feels that all administrators should be able to teach at least one class per quarter to keep them in touch with the students. "We need to remember that the students are what this is all about," he added. Kearney feels that the years have been so rewarding partly because of the people he's worked with. "The people who have been here have made this place so great" Kearney will finish his duties at UVCC before Thanksgiving vacation and plans to arrive in Saudi Arabia in early December. Dr. Kearney and his wife, Connie officially have seven children and seven grandchildren. But they will be leaving several thousand of their UVCC children behind, much richer for having had Dr. Kearney as a part of their lives. f 1 I t 5- X Dr. Wayne Kearney
